I just ordered a 20" E R Shaw bead blasted stainless SPR barrel from Bison Armory with intermediate length gas tube and 11 degree target crown in 6.8SPC. I got the stag bolt that will be headspaced for the particular barrel and the YHM low profile gas block. I got the upper and lower stripped receivers from Palmetto State (they have the stripped lower on sale for $49.00)as well as the forward assist and dust cover. I ordered the Magpul Enhanced LPK from Surplus Ammo and Arms along with their A2 style rifle butt stock, which comes with buffer tube, buffer, buffer spring and hardware. The only major component I need to decide on is the hand guard. I will also need barrel nut, firing pin and charging handle. I intend to free float the barrel and would like the gas block to be hidden by the hand guard. Any thing I am missing? This will be my first ground up build so am looking forward to seeing what it will do. Also, any advise is welcomed.
